Shirley Fine Lee, author of "R.A!R.A! A Meeting Wizard's Approach," leads Providence IAAP discussion of minute taking skills on February 24.
Online, February 6, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP) chapter in Providence, Rhode Island will be offering a teleseminar on the Skill of Minute Taking. The teleseminar will be on February 24, 2010 and facilitated by Shirley Fine Lee, author of the book "R.A!R.A! A Meeting Wizard's Approach." This teleseminar will emphasize that historical records, in the form of minutes, are important for better business meetings.
In the teleconference, Shirley Fine Lee will lead a discussion of how to improve the minutes provided for meetings by sharing what to put at the beginning and end of minutes, as well as: methods for recoding meeting discussions, why definitions are important, and why only recording decisions is not enough. Following the discussion of minute taking skills will be a brief brainstorming of ideas and technology to improve the value of the record-keeper role related to overall meeting planning and management.
